The Husband of Fatima
The Husband of Fatima takes inspiration from traditional portraits of Imam Ali and his zulfiqar, though here the image is transformed and modernized by bright, stickercore details and all that is pink. Here, Ali is both a warrior and a husband, a saintly figure of love who tenderly carries the name of his wife in his heart. He is young, fatherly, sporting the traditional braids of the Gulf Arabs who maintained this hairstyle for the harsh desert climate, while wearing the izar of the common man, a nod to his humble and modest nature.
